Renova Rx Skin Care Medication Information

Renova Use

Renova is a prescription cream that helps improve the appearance of skin and reduce the signs of aging.

How Renova works

Tretinoin, the active ingredient in Renova helps the skin renew itself more quickly, thus improving the appearance and texture of the skin.

How to take Renova

Apply Renova once a day at nighttime just after cleansing. Wash your face thoroughly with mild soap or gentle alcohol-free cleanser. Pat dry then wait at least 20 to 30 minutes. After your face is dry, dab a small amount (about ¼" diameter) of Renova on your forehead, chin, and cheeks. Spread Renova evenly throughout face. Do not get any Renova on the eyes, ears, nostrils, mouth, mucous membranes, open sores, irritated skin, or the angles of your nose. If you get medication in any of these areas, rinse it off with water.
